Description

A Voodoo god (Loa) of death. Quite humorous entity with fondness for rum, cigars and sex. I prefer this guy way more to some pussy shinigamis and wayyy to serious personifications of Death.:D

I like how African-American religions portray their entities. Many of these religions are practiced in my country (some were heavily influenced by Catholicism and Spiritism, others remained more purely African). Quimbanda is the most interesting of them for being quite "dark", free of Christian concepts and for the worship of Exus, which are erroneously viewed as demons by Christians (Jon Nodtveidt of Dissection even added it to his own beliefs shortly before his suicide). Exus are often offered cachaça (Brazilian rum) and cigars during rituals.

I don't take any religion seriously, but some beliefs are more interesting than others.

Sorry for commenting on a Jurassic artwork, I hate when someone does that on mine. :D
